“Operation Hug-A-Hero├é┬«, a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization (ID # 26-3006655) is proud and humbled to serve the children of our nation├óΓé¼Γäós heroes that serve in our armed services, law enforcement and as first responders.

Since its establishment in 2008, Operation Hug-A-Hero has raised funds to launch and implement its Hug-A-Hero doll program. To date, hundreds of Hug-A-Hero dolls have been provided, at no cost, to the children of heroes that are deployed, in harm’s way each and every day, or fallen.

The Hug-A-Hero doll is no ordinary doll. The Hug-A-Hero doll’s design features the head-to-toe photograph of the recipient’s parent or loved one and a personalized message just for them. The doll not only provides comfort in the times of distress or sadness that separation can cause, but also provides a vehicle for the child to share his/her feeling and tell his/her story about his/her hero’s service. We are inspired by the many families that have shared their stories about how the Hug-A-Hero doll has made a difference in their lives.

We fondly call the children in our program our “Littlest Heroes.”

Please join us in recognizing and honoring the ├óΓé¼┼ôLittlest Heroes├óΓé¼┬¥ of the families that serve our nation in support of our homeland security.”
